Recurring Tasks
Automate repetitive work by making a task repeat on a schedule. Arketic creates a new copy of the task at each interval.
Who Can Set Recurrence
Recurrence is set by people who can edit the task — the creator, managers, and admins.
Setting Up Recurrence
- Open the task's detail view
- Find the Recurrence section
- Choose a schedule from Set recurrence…:
| Option | Repeats |
|---|---|
| Daily | Every day |
| Mon / Wed / Fri | Those three days |
| Weekdays | Monday to Friday |
| Weekly (Monday) | Once a week |
| Monthly (1st) / Monthly (15th) | Once a month |
| Every 2 weeks | Every 14 days |
| Every 30 days | Every 30 days |
Once set, the task shows the rule and the next run date.
Stop Conditions
You can limit how long a task keeps repeating:
- Until — stop after a specific date
- Max runs — stop after a set number of copies (otherwise it runs indefinitely)
A counter shows how many copies have been generated.
How It Works
- At each scheduled time, a new copy of the task is created
- The copy inherits the task's details (title, description, priority, assignees, tags)
- Each copy is independent — completing one doesn't affect the next
- Generated copies are marked "Generated from recurring task"
To stop recurrence, open the task and Remove the recurrence rule. Copies already created stay and are completed normally.
Tips
- Set realistic schedules — don't repeat daily if the work is weekly
- Use stop conditions so recurring tasks don't run forever
- Write self-explanatory titles — copies are generated automatically
